Yesterday I had a filling, and I thought everything was ok.. However in the
night I woke up with a terrible tooth ache and had to take pain killers to
sleep. Since waking this morning I have felt no pain however my face is
slightly swollen. Is this normal after an injection and filling or should I
go back to my dentist? I go on holiday on monday amd do not want to have a
swollen face or experience further pain.. however I do not want to appear
dramatic to my dentist if this is normal!!

Thanks, carla

    It will be dramatic if you have a problem on holiday.  Call the dentist
now.  It may be nothing--or not.  Now is the time to find out.

    That's his/her job.  And you won't be wasting his/her time.
